(Clearwisdom.net) Up to July 20, 2007, the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners has been conducted by the Chinese Communist Party for eight years. San Diego Falun Gong practitioners proclaimed the week of July 22-28 as "San Diego Falun Dafa Week", and will host a series of activities to introduce Falun Dafa to the public and expose the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China. U.S. Congresswoman Susan Davis wrote a congratulatory letter. She commended the Falun Dafa practitioners for their commitment to peaceful resistance against the persecution. Below is the text of the letter.
